Mississippi Legislature proposes age restrictions on libraries’ digital content
2023-03-17 16:28:20, 1679088500
On March 8, two bills passed the Mississippi House and Senate, proposing age restrictions on libraries’ digital content. But in both House Bill 1315 and Senate Bill 2346, the language is so broad that “I’m pretty sure we just banned the Bible,” an independent state representative told the Mississippi Free Press. Both are headed to conference with House and Senate negotiators.
Under these bills, Mississippi could ban digital books with “sexually oriented” material from public and school libraries. Some lawmakers have voiced concern that this could mean even adults could not access some e-books. #shorts
